Milan makes the "devil" in Bologna, triumphs cleanly 0-3, narrowing the gap to 5 points in relation to Inter. More than the battle for the title, Allegri and his trusted ones strengthen their positions in the Champions zone, +4 from Napoli and +5 from Juve. This was an evening where the Rossoneri were perfectly tested even though Allegri did not have the two stars of the team Leao and Pulisic available, he started the match with the Loftus-Cheek-Nkunku duo in attack.

The English midfielder gave the first signal right from the start by flirting with the goal, while in the 20th minute he was served cleanly in the area by Rabiot and with a precise shot sent the ball into the net. In the 39th it was Nkunku's turn, with the Frenchman winning a 11-meter penalty and himself from the penalty spot he proved accurate by doubling the numbers. The home team was powerless to get back into the game, doing little or nothing to harass the Milan goal, while at the start of the second half it was Rabiot who took advantage of a Bologna blunder by tripling the numbers. The clean result gave Allegri the opportunity to refresh the team, while Fullkrug and the rest of the offensive phase tried to realize again, but without success.

Coach Allegri celebrates this success, but again he doesn't look from the top, but from the Champions zone:

""It was important to reach the 50-point mark as our target remains the top four. It is more important to look back, the championship is still long and there are many points at stake to achieve our target, to return to the Champions League", said Allegri. "What the hell. Milan destroys Bologna, stays -5 from Inter", writes La Gazzetta dello Sport on the front page.
